Description

Spanish school; early 18th century. "Saint Anthony of Padua". Oil on canvas. Re-drawn. It presents faults on the pictorial surface. It has a 20th century frame. Measurements: 63 x 45 cm; 73 x 54,5 cm (frame). Saint Anthony of Padua or of Lisbon (Lisbon, ca. 1191 to 1195 - Padua, 1231) was a Franciscan friar, preacher and theologian, venerated for his miracles and as a saint and Doctor of the Church, who was first a member of the Order of regular canons of Saint Augustine, until he became a Franciscan in 1220. St. Anthony of Padua is, after St. Francis of Assisi, the most popular of the Franciscan saints. He is depicted as a beardless young man in broad monastic tonsure, dressed in a habit, and is often shown with the Infant Jesus, holding him in his arms, alluding to an apparition he had in his cell. It became the most popular attribute of this saint from the 16th century onwards, being especially popular in the Baroque art of the Counter-Reformation.
